These United American States - See? STILL WORKS
May 30, 2016 Today we Americans remember the men and women who gave their all for our country's protection, prosperity, and liberty.
Including the liberty to do this:

o.0
And this:

>.<
And, unfortunately, even this:
;)
Yeppers.
God bless the UAS.
Thanks to Stephanie, Anony M., & Nichol C., who are all proud to be Americans - but maybe just a teensy bit less after seeing those donuts.

What the heck is that first thing? It looks like the back-side of a camel draped in a cheap flag beach towel.
I love and respect our service members, but I think too many people are not being taught to respect our service members or first responders anymore :'( too many people make heroes out of thugs.
It's good to know the worst or just ok crem wasn't used on the second one. No matter how it's spelled, it's great to be in the UAS. Because America doesn't imprison bakers who mess with our flag. Good for these guys.
Remember those we've lost and appreciate what we have.
What's wrong? It's just the flag -- sure are some big stars -- draped on the Liberty Cone.
Let's just go white-red-white-red-white, toss a tricolor mix of stars on the blue part, and call it a day. It'll be fine, right?
Those cupcakes are clearly in honor of the Uruguayan American School.
Because nothing says Murica like a giant veiny dong draped in the ol Stars n Bars.
I’m proud to be an American by Lee Glazewood or some other 'Merican baker.
If tomorrow all the wrecks were gone,
I’d looked at all my life.
And I had to start again,
With just a poundcake and a knife.
I’d miss the sloppy stars
And stripes the wreckers here display.
‘Cause a wreck still stands for talent,
That got lost along the way.
And I’m proud that I’m not a large brown mass,
That’s been covered with our flag.
‘Cause it’s color makes my stomach turn
I think I'm gonna gag
And I gladly sit down,
On that lump and squish it with my ass.
‘ Cause there ain’t no doubt I these wrecks,
God bless the UAS…
Well, at least a bit of effort went into the first one. I have to wonder if the person who decorated the second one has ever SEEN an American flag. Those donuts? United American States? Hmm.
I'm reminded of an old Jay Leno "Jay Walking" episode where he asked people questions about America. "How many stripes are on the flag?"
"Thirty-six?"
"What's our national bird?"
"The sparrow?"
Abandon hope, all ye who enter here!
Shirley - it's supposed to be a bell draped in the flag...
Not getting what's wrong with last cake. It doesn't read indecent and is designed and decorated well.
If it was supposed to be a flag or said it's one - I get it.
UAS = United American States -- it still makes sense! :)
OMG, SuBee! LMAO!!! I honestly hate that song with a passion, but your parody is nothing short of perfection (unlike that first cake).
It takes a Dark Wizard indeed to transform the Liberty Bell into Salazar Slytherin's codpiece. Presumably the Basilisk chomped the flag?
@Suebee bwahahaha
This has been bothering me all day, keeps orbiting around my brain and threatening my sanity. To banish this crazy-making, I took another look at the first one. I thought it might be for those who served in Irag/ Afghanistan; the flag draped over a sand dune maybe? And then-OMG!-it's supposed to be the Liberty Bell. If the Bell was made of melted khaki!
This does nothing to change the wreck but now I don't have to think about it.:)
Okay, I have HAS it!...(climbs up on table, after kicking all the empty-or-not) coffee cups off)...Now, listen up! We need better wreckorators! These things are an abom...er, an ablom...uhhh..a bomb-yeah!That's IT! A bomb in our nation! No, that's worse!!!....darn, I give up. Can anyone spell "abomination", please...=^-.-^=
Okay - UAS makes soooo much more sense than VAS - I was worried there, for a minute.
Because we HAVE liberty, it doesn't necessarily mean we should TAKE liberties...
I hope everyone is having a great (U.S.) Memorial Day. How many other countries have a Memorial Day? (Just curious; I am a typically educated 'Murican, which means I know jack about other countries unless I ask...)
I never knew the Liberty Cone had a tail ...
My daughter knew it was The Liberty Bell as soon as I showed it to her.
She starts therapy tomorrow.
Anyone reading my previous post - sorry. Apparently the computer on my phone did an April fools joke in May and put a Sunday Sweets in place of the UAS disaster.
(Editor's note- HA! Really?! That's kinda awesome. I wonder if it was a fluke or our server is wonky today. Anyway, thanks for the heads up! -john (the hubby of Jen)]
In New Zealand and Australia we have ANZAC day, which is our day for remembering military personnel who died. Sadly, not with cake. It's more dawn services and ceremonies held at the various War Memorials.
As I slowly scrolled down that first photo, I thought it was a flag draped over a soldier's boot. But, unless the boot was hit by lightning, I was wrong.
It just dawned on me that the horrible cake with a half-bottle of star-shaped sprinkles on it is actually - gasp - a (ptui!) CCC. Talk about adding insult to injury.
@SueBee - You nailed it!
And of course, Jen nails it every time. =-)
I love laughing at this site.
Wow, sometimes I don't read the titles of these posts.... please ignore my earlier comment!
Oh man that first cake/cone/whatchamacallit has me in tears of laughter lol. Oh man at least they tried with the flag. As for the UAS donuts oh man it isn't that hard to spell USA unless of course you are drunk and decorating in the dark.
JMixx - here in the UK we have Remembrance Day on 11 November to honour all those who have served, especially but not solely those who died. I gather the American Memorial Day dates from the American Civil War.
When you think what the UK flag is like, it's just as well that no one does cakes for Remembrance Day (though a pity in other ways, of course).
I'm still seeing VAS rather than UAS. I think those doughnuts are for vasectomy patients in the recovery room. :)
@Kris: Well, botched acronym or celebration of minor surgery, we'd better figure it out! There's a vas' deferens between them!!
Aw, I don't know how I missed this post. I love the Lumperty Bell and it's inpirational inscription, "Proclaim Lumpiness Throughout All the Land Unto All the Unspellers thereof."
